Dragoon in mage gear :/

Almost all of those aren't unique models and have crafted versions that can be used by DoW.

Specifically, the only models that are mage-restricted are only Acolytes/Cashmere, Battlemage/Cashmere, and Coliseum.

And 90% of DoW gear is also copy/paste. Coliseum, Foestrikers (BRD i90), Infantry (MNK i90) and...actually, that's about it. Maybe Poacher's Tunic (Cutter's Cry BRD drop), but I'm not sure about it.

Also, the Seer's Cowl (Cutter's Cry caster drop) is also unique; has a mask on it that no other robe has.

Taffeta looks pretty close to Coliseum imo.

I agree.
I made a thread a few days ago but it died.

Any job can wear the Taffeta (looks like Coliseum caster set) and Light Steel (looks like Coliseum physical DPS set). So you can make your mage looks like a physical DPS and vice versa. Both are crafted sets.

for those that just look at armor to judge a class, you need to look at weapons on this game, as weapons will always look like the type for each class (such as a dragoon can only glam dragoon weapons)

I don't think I'm against this. The game seems to follow the logic that everyone can wear cloth, but you need special strength or skills to wear heavier armor like mail or plate--skills and strength that only certain classes and jobs are capable of. This makes sense to me, but I wouldn't be against some special sets of armor-like gear that mages can wear, similar to the lightsteel set, which flat out admits in the name that its not heavy armor. Lightsteel.

I think it causes to much confusion among some people, I had a slip up in trial roulette the other day, I swear to god I thought a mage or healer pulled the boss to hurry us up, and it turned out to be a warrior in a dress... That was confusing enough for a moment, I don't want anything added to it lol.

This doesn't seem... right. Mages can't wear tank or DoW gear... but tanks and DoW classes can wear mage gear? Can this be fixed? (I'd love to wear the Foestriker's tunic as glamour.)

Well, give them some mercy :/ Their gear is so ugly so I understand they want to wear superior looking caster gear. Sadly for them they can not wield the awesome caster Sol set

Looks like Felt robe set. Could be dated gear from 1.0, which is all classes.

Were you able to examine it?

It doesn't matter either way because Felt Robe and its associated set are all classes.

I can get the reasoning behind it too, but there are still some items that are a little weird and it should at least be consistent. I think most leather gloves and shoes should be all classes, personally, and there are many cloth items that are geared toward DoW that can't be worn by mages like Kecks and Shirts.

I'd be totally for vanity-only varieties for sure though.
